CowParade in Madrid

While in Spain, I have grown a mild obsession for cows, and I do not mean real live cows.

CowParade has come to Madrid! It is a public art show where different organizations decorate a cow sculpture. The best thing about this art show is that the cows are auctioned off and the money raised is used for local charities.

The cows that I have seen have been very creative and interesting. I have around 30 pictures but there are a lot more cows to see in Madrid! You can run into them while coming out of the metro, crossing a big intersection, or even at the local flea market.
